Alison is ALWAYS in a swimsuit. I should probably buy her a few more, she only has 2

EllieBelly was in a dress, sweatpants and snow boots...so Ellie

and LittleMiss was eating dirt...
which could be how she got these hives! The hives were days before eating the dirt, but I'm sure it wasn't the first time she has done it. She had an allergic reaction to something and had raised red spots ALL over her...poor girl

Brian has been working hard...we are almost ready for the reveal. Maybe another week to go.

I found these frames at Target for $1.50 and grabbed 3. then...
Brian bought me some spray paint and now they look like this...
although I thought I got three of the same, but one doesn't have a mat...so my good deal, wasn't as good as it could have been since I need to buy one matlots of Popsicles being consumed


other than that we have been practicing writing our names swimming
lots of coloring and playing with blocks & little people.
I have implemented a "no TV" rule between 8 & 4 except for the occasional movie. Now my house is a disaster because they are all playing instead of zoning out in front of the TV - which is kind of a pain...but way better for their little brains I think :o)
They get to watch it in the morning, while I'm getting ready, and after 4 while I am fixing dinner.

good times :) i miss you!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute productive family!
ReplyDeletei like your tv rule.
ReplyDeletecute pictures. I love summertime. I think I jsut like all seasons.
maybe we need to try out the no tv rule. throw in a no computer rule and we'd probably get a lot more done around here during the day.
ReplyDeletei bet those frames will look great together, just stick the no mat one in the middle.
